I would personally like to congratulate Mr. Steve Peckett on a job well done at the Ride for Dad this past Saturday, June 15th, 2013.
All proceeds from the Ride for Dad go towards research for Prostate Cancer - a Cancer that is treatable if caught early enough.
There was a great turnout and I was proud to have it held here in the Town of Cornwall for the first time. Thank you, Steve, for allowing me to be a part of this event.

I want to thank Mike and Janice Corney for inviting Deputy Mayor Corey Frizzell and myself to their grand opening on Saturday, June 15th, 2013.

Everyone should get out to try this course - the prices are reasonable, the excitement is imminent, and you will not be sorry you tried it out.
